(CNN) Very little about Ben Keita's hanging adds up to the teen's family. Yet he disappeared seemingly without explanation in late November, and now here was his body, found by a passerby January 9, dangling from a long rope tied to a high branch. The Snohomish County medical examiner's office has consistently said he died by hanging, with no other evidence of trauma. January 9: A passerby finds Keita's body hanging from a tree branch in a densely wooded area blocks from his home. In one part, it cites the office's death investigator as estimating the branch was 50 feet high.
